Wunderman Thompson India has won the strategy and creative mandate for ŠKODA, the Czech automobile manufacturer, for a tenure of 3 years following a fiercely competitive multi-agency pitch. The account will be led and operated out of Wunderman Thompson’s Mumbai office.
The challenge put before Wunderman Thompson was to present their POV on SKODA after-sales services. Harnessing its data and tech capabilities, the agency worked extensively to understand cultural trends and engaged in consumer immersion to present solutions for the brand.
Wunderman Thompson India has unparalleled experience in the automotive category. The agency had a long-standing association with Ford Motor Co and launched several of its successful brands in the country. It continues to build on its decade-long relationship with HeroMotoCorp. And has been a long-term custodian for brands such as Apollo Tyres and Exide Batteries. All of which affords the agency a very comprehensive view of the broader automotive category and mobility in general.
